One Step Too Far

The old church bell rings

And starlings flap their wings against the sun

I'm running through the dirty streets

Looking back at her to shoot my gun

I almost made it to the getaway car

But it was just one step too far

So I'm left here with a pack of wolves

Trying to explain what just went down

I was mentioning Robin Hood

He's not known in the neighborhood or town

And when I talked about Little John in the bar

That's when I think I went one step too far

I saw my life flash in front of me

That's not an easy thing to see

And later in the prison cell

I'm so happy to be there

I don't mind they took my clothes

Broke my nose and cut my hair

But as I'm holding on to this iron bar

I'm wondering, did I take one step too far?

And I saw my life flash in front of me

That's not an easy thing to see

I saw my life flash in front of me

That's not an easy thing to see

One step too far

One step too far

One step too far
